  1. Hi,

    I'm re-posting this issue with a title change since this problem is not version specific. It appeared with version 9.0.402 and is still there in version 10.1.204.0. It seems to be Windows 10 specific.

    The problem seems to appear when your TMP/TEMP variables point to a non default folder

    The problem :

    After updating NOD32, the program tells you that your system is not protected. HIPS is disabled.as well as many features. NOD32 becomes totally useless. This is due to some drivers that could not be installed (see below).

    My temporary fix :

    1. In the ESET interface, go to Tools | Logs | Events and note which drivers have not been installed (generally eamonm.sys and/or ehdrv.sys and/or epfwwfpr.sys).
       
    2. Reboot Windows in safe mode.
       
    3. In Windows Explorer, go to C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\Drivers. Open the sub-folder corresponding to the driver that failed to install, right-click the corresponding .inf file and select Install. The driver installation should be acknowledged by Windows. Reboot only after installing all involved drivers.
       
    4. Restart the system. Everything should be OK.

    Since the above mentioned drivers can be installed in safe mode (NOD32 not running) but not from an administrator account, it seems that NOD32 is shooting itself in the foot. Apparently, this is not a permission problem since only the installation of these particular drivers fails.

    I didn't add C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\Drivers to the exclusion list and I don't see any good reason to do that but who knows ? Just waiting for advice about that from the support or from  the ESET reps on this forum. I didn't get much help since I reported this problem 9 months ago.

  2. Still the same old story...

    I just installed 10.1.204.0 manually (because 10.0.390.0 still said "up-to-date") and again I had to reboot in Safe Mode, install the above mentioned drivers manually and then reboot.

    I have reported this last year and now, I'd really like to have information about the possible reasons for which these drivers do not install correctly in "normal" mode.

    Running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit 1511.

    I don't understand. It's not an issue those records in the log as it seems to be how ELAM works according to our investigation. Don't see problems where there aren't any :)

    Marcos,

    You should understand this : I'm facing a problem that shows up with every release since 9.0.402 and that forces me to manually install some ESET drivers in safe mode in order to get the product working normally (see other thread about that). I'm slowly getting tired of this. I never got any explanation about this issue and no indication about what I should check in my system (beside your suggestion about WMI). I didn't write the installation program and I'm looking for a possible cause of the installation failure for these drivers. Now I discover this strange behavior of the eelam driver. I'm trying to understand what's going on and I'm wondering whether this could be related to the installation problem.

  4. OK. Problem spotted after looking at the log files. This is a similar problem as the one described here :

    The cause is the same (Eset drivers not installed) but with different consequences. The fix is the same, though :

    This problem with these drivers that are not installed (epfwwfpr and eamonm) is not new. It appeared on my system with version 9.0.402 and now, I have to apply the fix after each release or update. I never got any help from the support about this issue.

  5. Hi,

    Now that I have updated ESET NOD32 to version 10.0.386, I have a new problem. After each boot, I systematically get a notification from Windows telling me that both Windows Defender and ESET NOD32 are disabled. See ESET2.JPG. ESET itself shows a warning ESET1.JPG. And the ESET user interface displays strange numbers along with each section name (ESET3.JPG). In the dialog box shown by ESET2.JPG, I set ESET NOD32 ON but after each reboot, the same mess starts again. This problem is new to version 10.0.386.

  6. Hi,

     

    I'm unable to upgrade my Windows 10 to the Anniversary version and I'm always getting the following error :

     

    0xC1900101 - 0x20017 "The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation".

     

    I have been told that this could be due to my AV locking or writing to the SRP (System Reserved Partition). Is it actually the case ?

     

    Thanks in advance.
